i havent got one, but for my yr 12 subject, "System Electronics"...
our whole year's project is to firstly purchase an RC car, that is valued at 300 or so... then for school, do whatever you want to it!!!... eg: put on LED's as neons, indicators, fog lights, break lights, sound cards, even a mini flame thrower! im looking forward to doing this, and we even get to go to the Motor Show as an excursion, maybe at the end of the year il post pics up of my work.

1/10 touring cars are slower then 1/8 touring cars..
but touring cars are much faster then monster trucks (the one i have), and way lighter and smaller..
But you can make the monster trucks go as 100km/h if you have the right setup and gearing
and what do you mean by 'alot of room to put adjustments in it for school..'

Well there isnt really much to an electric car!
While all your idea's on paper sound great your going to need a fair bit of cash and realistic idea's to get something [good] off the ground!
Your best bet would be to load it up with an MP3 player tear apart those tacky ipod speaker things and mount them somewhere.
